Scott Miller - Amtrak Crescent lyrics
Well the Amtrak Crescent is a north bound train When you can't afford to stay no more in New Orleans So I bought the cheapest ticket and I carried my clothes And the blood beneath my eyes from a broken nose When life goes wrong this train goes on and on When life goes wrong this train goes on Well there aint no ham like the Birming-ham To make a fella wanna stay in Alabam But I crossed into Georgia into Eastern Time And dared to eat a peach to take it off my mind When life goes wrong this train goes on Somewhere between right and wrong Somehow I manage to keep moving on Searching for any place but where I am and a first and second chance At stop in Charlotte found a hogs leg joint Seemed like forever 'til we reached High Point Now Lynchburg to Danville that's a ghost filled rail If you listen you can hear the engineer's wife wail When life goes wrong this train goes on Better say Manassas if you say Bull Run Or in Virginia you won't get along with anyone But just across the river you can change your tune Like all the politicians there in DC do When life goes wrong they just go on Chorus It used to be pretty on the Eastern Shore Now its more New York down to Baltimore It took so much effort just to move this train Why does everything around me have to look the same? Like when life goes wrong, it just goes on and on |
